Electrolux EWF 14170 W - Manual (Page 27)

Malfunction Possible cause Solution
The machine vibrates or is
noisy: ● The transit bolts and
packing have not been
removed.
● The support feet have not
been adjusted.
● The laundry is not evenly
distributed in the drum.
● Maybe there is very little
laundry in the drum.
● Check the correct
installation of the appliance.
● Check the correct levelling
of the appliance.
● Redistribute the laundry.
● Load more laundry.
Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin: ● The electronic unbalance
detection device has cut in
because the laundry is not
evenly distributed in the
drum. The laundry is
redistributed by reverse
rotation of the drum. This
may happen several times
before the unbalance
disappears and normal
spinning can resume. If,
after 10 minutes, the
laundry is still not evenly
distributed in the drum, the
machine will not spin. In this
case, redistribute the load
manually and select the
spin programme. ● Redistribute the laundry.
The machine makes an
unusual noise ● The machine is fitted with a
type of motor which makes
an unusual noise compared
with other traditional
motors. This new motor
ensures a softer start and
more even distribution of
the laundry in the drum
when spinning, as well as
increased stability of the
machine.
No water is visible in the
drum ● Machines based on modern
technology operate very
economically using very little
water without affecting
performance.
